Angela got ready at the beautiful King Edward Hotel and from there we went to the Distillery District. Ceremony and reception was held at Airship 37, a very cool venue featured in this blog a few times already (reception was held at click here for other weddings at Airship 37).

Congrats, Angela and Daniel! Thank you so much for letting me capture your big day. ♥

Leigh’s and Simon’s wedding was my last one from the month of August, which was a super busy month! Lots of weddings and family photo shoots so I’m really only going out to work and coming right back home to make sure everybody gets their photos on a reasonable time.

I will not write that much today since I have so many photo sessions to go through, however I need to say that I loved working with this couple and their wedding at the Toronto Reference Library was truly beautiful! Very elegant and simple; and I knew it really reflected their personalities from the short time we spend together during their e-session.

Congrats, Leigh and Simon! It was great working with you and I wish you a lifetime of happiness. :) ♥

This was the perfect wedding from beginning to finish. I pretty much loved every detail from the wedding – from the attires to the decorations and location. There’s not one single photo I dislike and I’m pretty sure you guys won’t get bored while scrolling down my blog. :)

You might remember Adrienne and Eduardo because not too long ago I posted their also perfect winter engagement photo session – if you missed it, it’s definitely worth checking it out. These two just got married this past July and I’m so very lucky to have been part of their day.

Congrats, Adrienne and Eduardo! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness!! ♥

p.s.: I purposely didn’t mention how I loved working with such a good-looking-gorgeous-should-be-a-model bride simply because after spending the whole day with them, I cannot just write about their looks. These two are amazing human beings and it was a pleasure working with them and meeting their whole family.

p.s.2.: I’ve come to the conclusion that I will never be able to post all shoots I love here (due to having no time at all), so please check out my latest work at my Facebook page! :)

During summer spending 3 hours doing that while I need to edited photo sessions that are happening right now is tough. However this was my first time shooting at the beautiful Doctor’s House and I could not skip N. and H.’s wedding from here.

It’s really hard to not make the post super long because there are so many images I love and wanted to share with you and it honestly breaks my heart to not post everything I could. Even my web hosting service already warned me I post to many photos on my front page and it might make my site slower. LOL.

Anyways, this is N. and H.’s wedding from last May. You can also view their e-session here. Congrats N. and H., best wishes always! ♥

Weather hasn’t been that great so we’re also having lots of rescheduling, but I was so glad I was able to work with Kristine and Télcio last Wednesday. I’m completely in love with this photo session – I could literally post all photos from this shoot.

Kristine and Télcio are from Brazil and were actually in their honeymoon when these photos were taken. A friend of theirs had shot a maternity photo shoot with me and told them about my work. They only had one week left here in Canada, I didn’t have that many days available, it was raining almost every single day, but thankfully weather decided to cooperate on one of the few days we were both available.

The sunshine last Wednesday was just gorgeous!! Kristine decided to wear the wedding dress that belonged to her mom and honestly, that made the photos even more special! Let me share some of my favorites with you. :)

Kristine and Télcio, congrats on your wedding and thanks so much for letting me capture such a special moment in your lives. ♥

Once I had to choose a major in University, I picked Japanese. Why? Don’t ask me, I had no idea what I was doing career wise. Some months later, I decided to study IT. Yes, I have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. I worked many, many years as a web programmer and although I was pretty good at it, I never really loved that career.

Photography was always there, ever since I was a kid – I used to take millions of photos and had a pretty popular Fotolog. People would tell me how talented I was, however I never thought of earning a living out of that.

If you asked me what was my dream job in my early 20s, I’d say working at Disney World. Doing whatever. Just wanted to be at Magic Kingdom every single day of my life. To this day I love that place and I basically work to support my Disney addiction. Anyways… working at Disney World was not doable for many obvious reasons. However, I have to admit: I’m happy doing this. Really happy. Even though it was never a “dream” I was pursuing. Capturing milestones in people’s lives is wonderful and I’m aware of how lucky I am to be able to make a decent living out of photography.

I mentioned Disney World because that was where I got a call from Ashwin asking me if I was available to shoot their wedding day last month. I honestly thought he was joking since he called me in February – yes, February of THIS year. Turns out it wasn’t a prank call. LOL

I worked with Anna about 5 years ago and I could not believe she still remembered me. Even though their wedding day was just a month away, they also wanted an engagement shoot (which you can view here. check it out later, it’s definitely worth it!). We had the E-Session 4 (yes, FOUR) days before their wedding day.

In the end, everything turn out great – I loved their engagement shoot and can’t even start on how I’m in love with every single picture from this wedding.

This was my first 2015 wedding and I could have not asked for a better couple. Be prepared: this will be a super long post. They had TWO ceremonies: an Indian one and a Polish one. The reception was so full of entertainment and great moments that it was hard to pick which ones were going to be here.

Enough talking – let me share some of my favorite moments with you!

Congrats, Anna and Ashwin! I had an amazing time working with you two! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. ♥

When I met Tara I felt she was very practical. She and Ryan didn’t want an e-session and didn’t want to spend their entire wedding day posing for photos. So we did just a few of getting ready, went straight to ceremony, spend about an hour outside and went back inside to enjoy the reception. Can’t forget to mention they were super brave about having their portraits done during a freezing and windy windy windy night at the Distillery District.

Tara’s and Ryan’s wedding was definitely one of my favorites to shoot this past year: their wedding was really intimate – they had about 50 guests if I remember correctly. What I love about small weddings is that you can tell that everybody that is there really matters to them and they are all so into the moment. And that’s what photographers love – capturing those special non-manufactured moments throughout the night.

Congrats, Tara and Ryan! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. ♥

They got married this past November at the Westin Prince in Toronto, followed by the traditional 10-course chinese dinner reception (yummy!). Lina was a bit worried about being too cold and dark during her portraits session, but we got some amazing photos during that night. (as you can see above!)

Even though I had tons of fun during Door Games, the most creative one I have ever shot, I won’t be posting any of the photos here (Eric and the guys will thank me for that! LOL).

Congratulations, Lina and Eric, hope you guys have a wonderful life together! ♥

They got married at Sassafraz, a really great venue for intimate weddings like theirs. Going around Yorkville was a bit tough because it was the windiest day ever, but we still manage to get amazing shots out of it.

Congrats, Kristen and Marc! Wishing you a life filled with love and happiness! ♥

Their wedding photos started right at the Distillery District – no first looks nor getting ready photos. Melanie didn’t feel like she needed it and, although I do love taking pictures of those moments, I’m not sure if I would want it either if it was my wedding day (I got married a long, long, long time ago when people didn’t even think of having getting ready photos – hey, I’m not that old, it just happens that I got married at 19).

Decoration at the ceremony was simple and beautiful – super kawaii origami and the blue palette was stunning! It went so well with Melanie’s eyes. I liked it so much because you could truly see how it all came together perfectly. At the reception, instead of games, I had the privilege to watch some amazing Odori dance and drumming performances. Guests were completely blown away by those.

Congrats, Melanie and Jeff! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. ♥
